We are developing the social individualist meta-context for the future. From the very serious to the extremely frivolous... lets see what is on the mind of the Samizdata people.
Samizdata, derived from Samizdat /n. - a system of clandestine publication of banned literature in the USSR [Russ.,= self-publishing house]

The last breakfast before the space age A lovely quick breakfast of eggs, bacon and fruit in the hanger, cooked by the XCOR management… and now we wait a little bit before the roll out. Rand Simberg and Michael Mealing have been posting from here as well; I’ve seen a couple others who might be blogging stories as well.
And Dr. Pournelle is running about preparing to connect here in the XCOR office, so perhaps there will also be stories on his site.
I am almost surprised to not see Glenn out here since he knows almost all the same people I do and should be kicking himself for not running out on students for two days to join us here.
Meanwhile, I have to get busy on my second coffee!

Who Are We? The Samizdata people are a bunch of sinister and heavily armed globalist illuminati who seek to infect the entire world with the values of personal liberty and several property. Amongst our many crimes is a sense of humour and the intermittent use of British spelling.
We are also a varied group made up of social individualists, classical liberals, whigs, libertarians, extropians, futurists, ‘Porcupines’, Karl Popper fetishists, recovering neo-conservatives, crazed Ayn Rand worshipers, over-caffeinated Virginia Postrel devotees, witty Frédéric Bastiat wannabes, cypherpunks, minarchists, kritarchists and wild-eyed anarcho-capitalists from Britain, North America, Australia and Europe.
